Setup and Installation

Important: For your safety, set up the system before plugging it into a power source.

Speaker Placement

Position the two front satellite speakers on either side of your computer monitor, angled towards you. Place the right front speaker within easy reach as it's the control center. Position the rear left and right satellite speakers behind you, equidistant from you as the front speakers. Place the front center channel speaker on top of your monitor or desk between the monitor and keyboard. Adjust speaker stands to direct sound.

For best sound quality, place the subwoofer on the floor beneath your desk, ensuring at least 6 inches (15 cm) of spacing around it for adequate ventilation.

• Insert the colored plugs from each satellite speaker into the corresponding colored jacks on the back of the subwoofer.
• Connect the d-sub plug from the front right speaker to the subwoofer. Align pins carefully and screw down the connector.

Connecting to Your Audio Source

• For PC with a 6, 7, or 8-channel sound card (5.1, 6.1, 7.1): Connect the three colored plugs (green, black, orange) from the audio input cable to the color-coded jacks on your sound card.
